Canada plays Finland today and is expected to win but the big game of the schedule today is Russia vs the Czechs. This one, as they say, will separate the men from the boys and just how it will end up is hard to say although the Czechs are heavy favorites to win today, and in fact, capture the tournament title. The entire set-up is a natural build-up for the final day, with indications at the moment being that the championship will be up for grabs on Sunday and some hectic action can be anticipated, oe ee MAJOR UPSET of the curling world occurred in the World's Cup play at Perth, Scotland, yesterday when the United States rink nosed out Ernie Richardson and his -Cana- dian champions, 7-6, The Detroit curlers also won 9-7 over Scotland and the two wins put them up in front in the World's Cup play, a position not usually expected of U.S. curlers.

Before the world champion- ships opened here, the atmos- phere was somewhat stormy. The brawl at the exhibition one victory shy of becoming the 14th major league pitcher to win 300 games, is trying to stick with Chicago White Sox in a final bid to join the select circle. Philadelphia Phillies gave him a shove toward the old peoples' home Wednesday.
